There’s nothing I love more than using coloured gels in lights, it’s been my style since before I started shooting underwater, but there’s a funny thing that happens with light underwater - the further you get from the light source the colder the light becomes. For example when sunlight hits the surface of the water it’s colour is quite warm, full of reds and oranges, but as it gets deeper the warmer colours start to fade and just the colder part of the spectrum remains. This is why it seems like there’s not a lot of colour in some sea life, until it’s brought to the surface - like a starfish - it’s brilliant red bear the top of the water but gets fuller as it goes deeper....Anyway, what this means to my lighting is that if I add a coloured gel to one of my underwater strobes that colour will change depending on how far the subject is from the source! Meaning that I never REALLY know what it’s going to look like - and I really like that. I like that every shoot I do is going to be different, a little bit of randomness just like this one with @kimberlykmodel.
